Disabled veteran Jessie Qualls likes being a disc jockey in his native Shoals. You can tell by his colorful description of his combat tour in Vietnam, 1965-66.
âLike walking through hell with a pair of gasoline-soaked drawers on,â he said. âThatâs exactly the way it felt like.â
Qualls was an automatic weapons squad leader with Bravo Company, 1st Battalion, 502nd Airborne Infantry Strike Force, 101st Airborne Division, from March 1965 until July 1966. Initially he was in Cam Rahn Bay. From there he went to the central highlands up to An Khe and to Kon Tum Province.
When his company went out on their nightly patrols, his 12-member squad provided the automatic weapons fire. The 22-year-old specialist four carried an M60 machine gun, an Army .45-caliber pistol and a 12-gauge shotgun.
